Restore the public forum selector on prosilver forum and topic pages after the removal proposed in phpBB PR #6927. Reuse phpBB’s permission-filtered forum tree and preserve the markup phpbb-tui uses for navigation.

Add a Show the public jumpbox option in ACP Load settings. Turning it off hides the selector while keeping the permitted forum links available to phpbb-tui. Add keyboard support, screenshots, and validation workflows.

Testing

• Codex ran EPV against phpBB 3.3.x and master with zero findings and ran the phpBB code sniffer successfully.
• On the disposable phpBB 4.0 board, Codex verified that both ACP visibility settings save correctly. With the selector hidden, phpbb-tui discovered nested forums and showed Staff Room only to the signed-in administrator. It also created a topic in Member Projects.
• Codex verified keyboard opening, Tab navigation, Escape closing, and focus return in Playwright. The pinned core snapshot required test-board-only template fixes for topic rendering and posting.
